TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The W3 page (http://www.w3.org/xml/) has a list of "other resources"
below the links to the specification. This includes online tutorials,
bibliographies magazines and "even movies".
XML.com (http://www.xml.com) has a list of brief articles under the
title of "Essentials" that define the various technologies quite well.
Don't let the specs scare you off the technology. There's lots of help
in learning xml out on the web.
Hope this helps.
